VINCENT ESTRADA

About Me

Vince was born in Southern Ca.As a child he would would stare at the radio and be fascinated by the driving sounds of R&B,Blues, and Western music.The Beatles featured harmonica on thier first hits..this encouraged him to take up the harp as well..Neil Young's ''Heart of Gold''was the first little song he learned and he's been growing since.His goal has been to demonstrate that the harp can do more than play the blues and campfire songs.Much of his efforts for the past years have been spent in houses of worship on the West Coast.He's recorded many projects wtih''Indie'' artists and has been very well recieved. This year will be a time to produce his first original project of his old writings and the new ones from his time of testing. Six years ago he was given 4-6 months to live.As a cancer survivor Vince has recieved the miracle of restoration.He believes ''PEOPLE NEED A MESSAGE OF HOPE''. These days and he's demonstating this with his harp! contact me at [email protected]
